Over the past months I've noticed a few questions on the OPL3SA2 chip and, now that I want to use ESD on a Toshiba laptop, I face similar problems. I don't recall seeing comprehensive solutions posted, but perhaps those who have figured out their OPL3SA2/3 problems might care to advise me (bearing in mind that for me, sound is a Black Art): Situation: - Yamaha OPL3SA2 on Toshiba Satellite 300CDT laptop. - Linux 2.0.36 with OSS sound driver for OPL3SA2 as module. - sndconfig (from RedHat) run to set irq, dma as for Win 95 Behavior: - can send a .au file to /dev/audio (and hear it! ;-> - Start Enlightened Sound Daemon (esd) and get message: initializing... (and nothing else) - any further attempts to send anything to /dev/audio get a 'device busy' message. Can anyone suggest: - where I can get a copy of the current ESD source (I have only a binary on a tools disk from RedHat) - where I can get more documentation on ESD and the driver (eg, to answer qn: 'is ESD asking for a service to which the driver provides an unexpected answer?') - whether this is a symptom of a misconfiguration of the driver (I have run through a number of dma addresses and irq ports but am always willing to try more!) and if so whether there is a systematic way to find the correct configuration - whether this is a symptom of a known bug in the driver All succor siezed!
